Student life

Seabury Hall's student government plays an active role in the day-to-day life of the student body. It currently consists of four elected officers: president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer. It also has a variety of officer elected committees to further expand the amount the organization can achieve.

Seabury Hall's students are also very active in extracurricular activities, including sports, clubs, and community service.

Winterim

Winterim is a hallmark program at Seabury Hall that brings together groups of students from various grades to participate in a week-long, out-of-classroom educational experience of their choosing at the end of March. Students rank their top choices from a catalog of options, with themes ranging from crafts, to sports, to cultural exploration. All grades participate in Winterim, but younger students are typically selected for on-island programs that occur during the day, while older students may be selected for off-island programs and overnight programs. Several Winterim programs occur off the island of Maui, and occasionally outside of the state of Hawaii. Each Winterim is led by an expert in the field, from outside of Seabury Hall, as well as at least one Seabury Hall faculty. There are no normal classes during the winter session.
